Steel Reinforcement Institute of Australia

The REO QUALITY CHAIN is only as strong as the weakest link. If Non-Conforming couplers are used on a project then the steel reinforcement solution no longer meets Engineering design requirements. COUPLERS are part of an AUSTRALIAN STANDARDS compliant rebar solution. DON'T BREAK THE REO QUALITY CHAIN - Ask your couplers supplier for quality certification.

⚠️HOW YOU WEED OUT NON-CONFORMING REBAR AND MESH: Processors / Suppliers - Ask the Steel Mill for 3rd Party Certification that the bar, rod, and mesh conform to AS/NZS 4671 before you buy. When the steel arrives, check that the unique bar marks on the product match the bar marks on the certificate (see our previous post on how to do this: https://lnkd.in/gnw6Hbix) Builders / Contractors - Ask the Processor / Supplier for their 3rd Party Processor certificate to verify the processed bar and welded mesh conform to AS/NZS 4671 and check that the bar marks on the certificate match the bar marks on the product before the concrete is poured. Note: The mechanical properties of a steel bar change when it is bent, straightened, or welded so you can't rely on mill certificates. Engineers / Surveyors - Ask the Builder for 3rd Party Processor certification verifying the rebar and mesh conform to AS/NZS 4671 before you accept product. Please follow these guidelines to flush out Non-Conforming Rebar and Mesh, or .... Buy from an SRIA Member. Our members must hold a JASANZ accredited 3rd party certificate to demonstrate product traceability and conformance to AS/NZS 4671. Everyone in the supply chain has a duty of care to ensure compliant reinforcement is supplied.

👷ATTENTION BUILDERS: Please be advised that FRAUDULENT compliance certificates are being sent to customers of imported steel mesh. The unique bar markings on the mesh do not match the markings on the certificate. **** You have 2 options to protect yourself *** 1. Check that the unique bar marking on the longitudinal and crossbars of the steel mesh MATCH the markings on the certificate. EXAMPLE: The bar below has an N mark to show that the mesh was manufactured by Neumann Steel Pty Ltd. Download the supplier's AS/NZS 4671 compliance certificate at steelcertification.com. On p.2 of the certificate, you can verify the bar marks match >>> https://lnkd.in/gCeyzEp6 2. Buy steel mesh from an SRIA PROCESSOR MEMBER. A requirement for SRIA membership is AS/NZS 4671 product certification from an independent JASANZ accredited organisation.
